J.L. Baker & Sons promises to improve the operations of United Parcel Service, as it takes over from previous franchise holder, Pacific Postal Plus.
The leading franchise holder of UPS in Guam officially opened its operation today and no less than the freight-forwarding company’s manager Lloyd L. Baker Jr. is promising the CNMI community a more efficient and better service.
Baker said the new management would be more aggressive and more service-oriented. He said the company held a dry run last week to give them a feel of what improvements are needed to be made in the local operation.
He said they took over the operations on Saipan as they believe that there is potential in the CNMI market.
Baker also said J.L. Baker & Sons is sticking to its objective of becoming the No. 1 freight forwarder in Micronesia.
“UPS is here and we feel great to provide this service for the CNMI,” Baker said.
He said a normal document would only take two days to be delivered and large packages at least three days.
Baker said UPS customers are assured of a secure and fast delivery of their documents and packages since UPS serves all countries in the world. He said UPS is a trusted name, so customers don’t need to worry.
He said customers don’t need to bring large packages to their office because their reliable courier crew can pick up the packages from their homes or offices.
The new UPS operation on Saipan provides express shipping, door-to-door delivery. Baker also said the public could now easily recognize UPS, as their van falls within the standards of UPS International. Currently, UPS Saipan has one van serving the community but another van would be added soon, according to Baker.
Baker said in every business there would always be challenges, but as of the moment, they have not encountered any. He said with the track record of the firm, if the challenges do come, he is pretty confident that they would handle it well.
